Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Breathtakingly beautiful. Definitely recommended. We made this walk with our three sons aged 13, 11 and 5. It's 6km and it took us 3 hours (quite a pace). Come as early as possible, it's open at 8am. Then there is parking and you walk in peace and quiet. Bring a bottle of water and something to eat. (Only for the cash registers are toilets and there are restaurants). Not recommended for children under 4 because of the sometimes tough walk / climb. And (unfortunately) not recommended for people with walking difficulties.

My wife and I visited Cesky Raj (Bohemian Paradise) and Adrspach-Teplice Rocks, two areas in northern Czech Republic with magnificent rock formations in April, 2019. We enjoyed our visit to these two quiet, scenic areas much more than the crowded, big-bus tourist towns of Prague and Cesky Krumlov. Between the two areas, we prefer Adrspach-Teplice Rocks for its more varied rock formations, fewer visitors, and more remote setting. However, Cesky Raj is much closer to Prague. We rented a car for our visit.
The Teplice Rocks loop hike was our favorite in the Adrspach-Teplice Rocks area. We feel that Teplice Rocks (Teplicke Skaly) was more scenic, less crowded, and more dramatic compared to Adrspach Rocks (Adrspasske Skaly). We hiked the 6 km blue loop trail (about 3 hrs). In early April, we passed no more than 20 other hikers during our hike. There was still snow and ice along one portion of the path. Make sure you climb the 300 step steel staircase to your right up to a high viewpoint (Strmen Castle) 10-15 minutes past the entrance. Portions of the loop trail may be closed due to nesting peregrine falcons during breeding season (April & May). The entrance fee is 100 czk. Parking cost 100 czk.
You can combine the Teplice Rocks loop (6 km) and the Adrspach Rocks loop (4 km) using a connecting trail through the Wolf Gorge (2.5 km), hiking both Adrspach and Teplice in one long day (6+ hrs). Unless you are short on time, we recommend doing Adrspach and Teplice on separate days to give yourself plenty of time to experience this scenic area.
For those coming by car, the GPS coordinates for the Teplice Rocks parking lot is 50.595083, 16.148340. For hotels and restaurants, the small towns of Adrspach and Teplice nad Metuji provide some limited options. We stayed at Pension Ctyrlistek, a family-run hotel in a quiet, scenic area, two minutes drive from Teplice Rocks. We found a good Italian restaurant (Pizzerie Janeba) and a large Penny Market for groceries in the nearby town of Police nad Metuji (15 minute drive).

This side of the mountain is definitely less crowded, but it takes quite some time to walk. We started the trail but did not finish it.

Roads leading to this site are closed, and parking is a nightmare.
In theory, one could take a train from a earby town (Teplice) but trains were overcworded (middle of the week) and the crew didnt allow anyone in....
Overall, it took us more time to find a parking and get from parking to Teplicke Dkaly - than we spent there...
And yes, rocks are absolutely amazing. But commute and parking are a nightmare!

We were here on a rainy day and had the place for ourselves. There are a couple of sheltered picknick places were we had our lunch or a break. Take care when you visit the 'Castle'. Really lots of steep steps up and down but worth the effort.

Teplice rocks and Adrspach rocks are together the biggest rock city in Europe (I think). You will see big towers, nice cracks, hidden lakes and beautiful nature there. You can climb under the local regulations.

This is a true highlight of the Czech Republic. We were in Praha for a business meeting and took two extra days specifically to come to this park. It was a highlight of our Czech trip. About an hour and a half train ride from Praha it is probably best to spend a night or two in Teplice nad Metuji so that you are not rushed. There is a south entrance just up the road from Teplice nad Metuji with one set of formations and a northern entrance Ardspach. It is worth visiting both entrances as each area has a much different feel. There is a trail that connects both so you can easily start at one end and walk to the other. The north (Ardspach) entrance is much more developed, crowded and has a larger gift shop). Trails are well marked and available for a variety of physical conditions. A true gem of a park! A must see if you are visiting the Czech Republic.

We stayed in a pension at the parking lot, so were able to be on the trail at 9am. We had almost the whole experience to ourselves - wandering among the sandstone pillars was quite magical. There are signs pointing out specific rocks with names, which made a fun game of finding the rock features. Only took less than 2 hours - and when we were leaving it was becoming more crowded. The hike is actually easier than the one at Ardspach, which had tour buses and throngs of people hiking to the boat tours. All very dog friendly.

We had a family weekend down south of Poland with couple of friends too and we decided to go for a short trip to see Teplicke Skaly (Rock City). It was 45 min. ride from the place we stayed.
It's easy to get there with GPS. Plenty of parking space but be aware that it was first weekend of September so not quite peak of summer season.
Family admission is 170Kč. There is beautiful pond/lake just in front of the entrance. Unfortunately - swimming is not allowed. Shame, because it was hot as hell!
You walking along clearly marked path. Views are amazing! There are some steep walk inns and walk downs but not many. I was with my kids 8 and 10 and they made it .
We spend there c.a. 3 hours. There is restaurant where you can have cold one and simple meal. You need to be prepared to pay 100Kč/person/meal.
I recommend to exchange PLN or EUR to Kč before you get to Adrspach, because difference is huge!

Hello traveller!
I was there with my girlfriend and our dog. We started our tour early in the morning (about 8 a.m.), nobody was there, and since noon we met literally 4 people. We had a great time!
Few tips before entering this park:
1. Buy a map!
2. Direction: I'd always go from Teplice nad Metují to Adršpach. Walk through Teplické skály is much more extensive and also pleasant to walk through than Adršpach rock town. (in Adršpach there are ladders and less modified route through) When you walk this direction you will end your tour by a beatiful lake with rocks all around.
3. Lenght: You have choice, that's absolutely fine, but consider packing some food and a lot of water while choosing all day long trip because there is NO CHANCE TO BUY ANYTHING ON THE WAY!
Enjoy your tour, it's amazing, kind of walking meditation in a special area.

Hi, we're travelling from Wroclaw with train but we're not sure to which station we should we go. Should we buy ticket for Adrspach or Teplice nad Metuji, or that depends on which entrance we're going?

Hi
Nex week I will be in Polanica-Zdrój in Poland
I was planing to drive from Polanica-Zdrój in Poland to Teplicke skaly Capi vrch in Czech.
I do not know Polish and not Czech and I did not find the startin point of the trail in this place.
Do I need to pay while crossing the border from Poland to Czech or for the road?
Any help will be helpfull.
Thanks,
Maya

You don’t have to pay absolutely anything when crossing borders from Poland to Czech. You also don’t have to go through any control. Enjoy.

April is spring in Czech Republic. It is really hard to say. I would definitely pack warmer clothes because it still can get quite cold. But if you are lucky you will have nice sunny days, but still because it’s close to mountains, take something warm for yourself .
